Did you know that you can use the flowers from your garden to perfume your clothes?
THE delicate fragrance of many of our sweetest flowers can be imprisoned in your clothes. So why not gather them from your own garden, crush them into tiny muslin sachets, and place with your lingerie. In this way, your clothes will retain that subtle suggestion of perfume so desirable to every dainty woman.
A bunch of violets left in a drawer for half a day will perfume clothes sufficiently for a special outing in the evening-especially if your garments are slightly warmed first.
The flowers should be gathered when the sun is hot, crushed, and put into muslin bags, to avoid staining, and then placed in boxes and drawers.
After using flowers in this manner, you will never return to heavy bottled perfumes for lingerie. There is nothing to compare with the delightful freshness, and suggestion of delicacy, which real garden fragrance gives-without cost, and in such a simple way.
Share with your friends if you liked it.
